&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Ingenuity is developed, not innate!&amp;quot; — Indiga Hess&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;A short introductory blurb about your character goes here. This should briefly explain who they are, what role they play in the story, and any key traits that define them!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Think of this section as a way to give readers a quick understanding of your character before they read the full page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== How to Use This Template ==&lt;br /&gt;
This page is a &#039;&#039;&#039;template and guide&#039;&#039;&#039;. Do not directly edit this page!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To create your own character page:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Copy the url of this page&lt;br /&gt;
* Replace &amp;quot;Character_Template_Page&amp;quot; with your character&#039;s name&lt;br /&gt;
* You will be brought to the new page, which has not been created yet. Click &amp;quot;edit source&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
* Copy this page’s contents from the source editor on this page&lt;br /&gt;
* Paste it into the new page and edit there&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Visual Editor can be used afterwards for easier editing, but the source editor is recommended for initial setup to copy all the formatting!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If this page was edited accidentally, please tell someone so it can be restored. Sharky periodically takes backups of the wiki. Mistakes happen.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ensure the new page is properly categorized under &#039;&#039;&#039;Characters&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Appearance ==&lt;br /&gt;
While you might think an image is enough to show what your character looks like, it helps enormously to describe your vision in writing as well. This helps a lot with context so artists seeking to draw your character can do so accurately.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== History ==&lt;br /&gt;
Describe your character’s background prior to arriving on Locus Astra.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Think to include...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Origin story&lt;br /&gt;
* Key life events&lt;br /&gt;
* Motivations&lt;br /&gt;
* Personality development&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section is meant to provide &#039;out-of-character context (OOC-friendly lore explanation)&#039; so other users can understand your character’s role in the world. You don&#039;t have to give the same level of detail as you did in your whitelist ticket, but share whatever you want your fellow players to know if they read about your character!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You may want to break up this section into further subheadings, like below:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early Life ===&lt;br /&gt;
Childhood and upbringing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Inciting Event/Turning Point ===&lt;br /&gt;
Something happens that changes your character forever...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Arriving on Locus Astra ===&lt;br /&gt;
Events leading right up to the start of the SMP that explains who they are now and why they are that way.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can add as many subsections as you want.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Personality ==&lt;br /&gt;
Describe how your character tends to act, and what their goals are for the campaign! Here you can explain their beliefs, ideology, and their dreams for the future.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Relationships ==&lt;br /&gt;
This is arguably the most fun section. Here, add subsections for friends, fellow players, your character&#039;s family, pets... whatever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Extras ==&lt;br /&gt;
Here&#039;s all the other bells and whistles... for your artwork, screenshots, trivia facts, and music.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For an image gallery, use the &amp;quot;Insert Gallery&amp;quot; feature in the editor. Or, just insert a standard image!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As an added note, please ensure your page is correctly categorized at the bottom!&lt;br /&gt;

This section is meant to provide &#039;out-of-character context (OOC-friendly lore explanation)&#039; so other users can understand your character’s role in the world. You don&#039;t have to give the same level of detail as you did in your whitelist ticket, but share whatever you want your fellow players to know if they read about your character!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You may want to break up this section into further subheadings, like below:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early Life ===&lt;br /&gt;
Childhood and upbringing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Inciting Event/Turning Point ===&lt;br /&gt;
Something happens that changes your character forever...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Arriving on Locus Astra ===&lt;br /&gt;
Events leading right up to the start of the SMP that explains who they are now and why they are that way.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can add as many subsections as you want.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Personality ==&lt;br /&gt;
Describe how your character tends to act, and what their goals are for the campaign! Here you can explain their beliefs, ideology, and their dreams for the future.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Relationships ==&lt;br /&gt;
This is arguably the most fun section. Here, add subsections for friends, fellow players, your character&#039;s family, pets... whatever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Extras ==&lt;br /&gt;
Here&#039;s all the other bells and whistles... for your artwork, screenshots, trivia facts, and music.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For an image gallery, use the &amp;quot;Insert Gallery&amp;quot; feature in the editor. Or, just insert a standard image!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As an added note, please ensure your page is correctly categorized at the bottom!&lt;br /&gt;

This should briefly explain who they are, what role they play in the story, and any key traits that define them!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Think of this section as a way to give readers a quick understanding of your character before they read the full page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== How to Use This Template ==&lt;br /&gt;
This page is a &#039;&#039;&#039;template and guide&#039;&#039;&#039;. Do not directly edit this page!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To create your own character page:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Copy the url of this page&lt;br /&gt;
* Replace &amp;quot;Character_Template_Page&amp;quot; with your character&#039;s name&lt;br /&gt;
* You will be brought to the new page, which has not been created yet. Click &amp;quot;edit source&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
* Copy this page’s contents from the source editor on this page&lt;br /&gt;
* Paste it into the new page and edit there&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Visual Editor can be used afterwards for easier editing, but the source editor is recommended for initial setup to copy all the formatting!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If this page was edited accidentally, please tell someone so it can be restored. Sharky periodically takes backups of the wiki. Mistakes happen.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ensure the new page is properly categorized under &#039;&#039;&#039;Characters&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Appearance ==&lt;br /&gt;
While you might think an image is enough to show what your character looks like, it helps enormously to describe your vision in writing as well. This helps a lot with context so artists seeking to draw your character can do so accurately.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== History ==&lt;br /&gt;
Describe your character’s background prior to arriving on Locus Astra.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Think to include...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Origin story&lt;br /&gt;
* Key life events&lt;br /&gt;
* Motivations&lt;br /&gt;
* Personality development&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This section is meant to provide &#039;out-of-character context (OOC-friendly lore explanation)&#039; so other users can understand your character’s role in the world.

&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early Life ===&lt;br /&gt;
Childhood and upbringing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Inciting Event/Turning Point ===&lt;br /&gt;
Something happens that changes your character forever...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Arriving on Locus Astra ===&lt;br /&gt;
Events leading right up to the start of the SMP that explains who they are now and why they are that way.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can add as many subsections as you want.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Personality ==&lt;br /&gt;
Describe how your character tends to act, and what their goals are for the campaign! Here you can explain their beliefs, ideology, and their dreams for the future.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Relationships ==&lt;br /&gt;
This is arguably the most fun section. Here, add subsections for friends, fellow players, your character&#039;s family, pets... whatever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Extras ==&lt;br /&gt;
Here&#039;s all the other bells and whistles... for your artwork, screenshots, trivia facts, and music.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For an image gallery, use the &amp;quot;Insert Gallery&amp;quot; feature in the editor. Or, just insert a standard image!&lt;br /&gt;

This section is meant to provide &#039;out-of-character context (OOC-friendly lore explanation)&#039; so other users can understand your character’s role in the world. You don&#039;t have to give the same level of detail as you did in your whitelist ticket, but share whatever you want your fellow players to know if they read about your character!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You may want to break up this section into further subheadings, like below:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Early Life ===&lt;br /&gt;
Childhood and upbringing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Something happens that changes your character forever...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Arriving on Locus Astra ===&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
You can add as many subsections as you want.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Personality ==&lt;br /&gt;
Describe how your character tends to act, and what their goals are for the campaign! Here you can explain their beliefs, ideology, and their dreams for the future.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Relationships ==&lt;br /&gt;
This is arguably the most fun section. Here, add subsections for friends, fellow players, your character&#039;s family, pets... whatever.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

This should briefly explain who they are, what role they play in the story, and any key traits that define them!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Think of this section as a way to give readers a quick understanding of your character before they read the full page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== How to Use This Template ==&lt;br /&gt;
This page is a &#039;&#039;&#039;template and guide&#039;&#039;&#039;. Do not directly edit this page!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To create your own character page:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Copy the url of this page&lt;br /&gt;
* Replace &amp;quot;Character_Template_Page&amp;quot; with your character&#039;s name&lt;br /&gt;
* You will be brought to the new page, which has not been created yet. Click &amp;quot;edit source&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
* Copy this page’s contents from the source editor on this page&lt;br /&gt;
* Paste it into the new page and edit there&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Visual Editor can be used afterwards for easier editing, but the source editor is recommended for initial setup to copy all the formatting!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If this page was edited accidentally, please tell someone so it can be restored. Sharky periodically takes backups of the wiki. Mistakes happen.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ensure the new page is properly categorized under &#039;&#039;&#039;Characters&#039;&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Appearance ==&lt;br /&gt;
While you might think an image is enough to show what your character looks like, it helps enormously to describe your vision in writing as well. This helps a lot with context so artists seeking to draw your character can do so accurately.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== History ==&lt;br /&gt;
Describe your character’s background prior to arriving on Locus Astra.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Think to include...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Origin story&lt;br /&gt;
* Key life events&lt;br /&gt;
* Motivations&lt;br /&gt;
* Personality development&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Optional species quote or defining cultural phrase.&amp;quot; — Someone from this species&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once comprised of more conventional beings, generations of intense arcane experimentation and prolonged exposure to unstable energies reshaped the Gelum into fluid, slime-based entities, their bodies no longer bound to fixed structures, although most retain humanoid shapes and floating bones and organs within. This provides the Gelum with extraordinary adaptability and a unique relationship with magic, but at the cost of physical stability. To survive, many Gelum rely on external frameworks, whether mechanical or arcane, to maintain cohesion in environments not attuned to their altered state. This can be something as simple as wearing arcane supports. Many are semi-transparent, but some are known to be opaque. Native to the inner reaches of &#039;&#039;&#039;[[Singulon]]&#039;&#039;&#039;, they are the architects behind one of the most audacious feats in known space: the creation and containment of an artificial singularity, which they harness as both a power source and a focus for advanced magical study. Among other species, the Gelum are often regarded with a mix of awe and unease. They embody both the potential and the danger of pushing beyond natural limits, living proof that mastery over reality can unmake one’s self just as easily as it can elevate it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== &#039;&#039;&#039;Core Worldview&#039;&#039;&#039; ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What is this species&#039; outlook on the world? What is their main mentality?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== &#039;&#039;&#039;Physiology and Design&#039;&#039;&#039; ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum have a very unique biology. They appear to have a somewhat normal organ structure, though some, like lungs, are vestigial. and they have extremely thick yet flexible skin. They can expand  at will and lose most of their rigid structure. They don&#039;t have traditional muscles, but have nearly invisible tendons that connect to small rigid organs in their “joints.” Gelum are composed of a gelatinous substance, dense enough to hold organs without a skeletal structure in certain atmospheres. Their artificial singularity has slowly been warping them to favor more high pressure conditions. Their joints are filled with a viscous fluid that allows them to bend at those specific points more easily.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== &#039;&#039;&#039;Magic&#039;&#039;&#039; ====&lt;br /&gt;
Their organs are very similarly composed to that of the common Aurelian, aside from a spiky organ attached to their heart called the Aursin. This organ allows them to accumulate magical energy from the surrounding area and their own bodies to expel as spells. This does not mean Gelum are naturally gifted at magic though and they have to work said organ in order for it to be usable. They have the same magic capabilities as other species and do not have any particular advantage with this innate ability provided other than a slightly easier time initially accessing their magic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== &#039;&#039;&#039;Diet and Bodily Functions&#039;&#039;&#039; ====&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum are omnivores, and will eat any carbon-rich foods. They don&#039;t necessarily need to eat through their mouth, as they can absorb nutrients through most parts of their skin. “Breathing” oxygen works in a similar way, meaning their lungs aren&#039;t necessary. Some Gelum will pretend to breathe, though, as other Starborn can sometimes find their stillness off-putting. When it comes to waste, they don&#039;t defecate normally, rather, any waste from foods they eat is compressed into scentless, nutrient-less pellets that they can expunge from any part of their skin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== &#039;&#039;&#039;Reproduction&#039;&#039;&#039; ====&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum reproduce asexually, and lack traditional sex organs. Due to this, there are no families or relatives, which leads Gelum to form multiple relationships with each other.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== &#039;&#039;&#039;Social Structures and Community&#039;&#039;&#039; ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum are very dependent on each other, and rely on their community. Their government/economic structure, or lack thereof is fairly laissez-faire. Though this government structure has evolved into a pseudo-communist structure which has the resulting dependence that is present currently. They form small communities, attune to villages, and they tend to trade between said villages. In times of trouble or conflict councils are formed with representatives from each of the villagers involved to attempt to resolve things diplomatically as life is hard enough without conflicts to make things worse.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== &#039;&#039;&#039;Government&#039;&#039;&#039; ====&lt;br /&gt;
Within these communities a wide range of different government structures are used however in most them tends to be anywhere from 1-5 elected officials from the elders of academics of the community who act as representatives in inter-community councils and leaders for community meetings where decisions are made. While currency is used, in many communities trade is conducted more through a system of ongoing favors and partnerships with a general purpose of ensuring everyone in the community has what they need and is providing for others acting under the philosophy that it all roughly balanced out so no need to stress over exact currency transactions. In inter-community or inter-species transactions this is where currency tends to be used more often and Gelum are much more careful to make sure their goods and services are properly paid for. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If a member of a community is deemed to be a problem or unfit to be part of the community they are cast out and either must beg for another community to accept them or try to live in the wildnesses alone which is a dangerous prospect. There are some Gelum who have managed very successful lives as outcasts but due to their very community based culture most would find such a life to be torture.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== &#039;&#039;&#039;Religion and Spirituality&#039;&#039;&#039; ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelums are devoid of a common religion. Some are very spirtual though and believe in the power of souls and their linkage to magic as well as each other. They believe in the afterlife, and that the soul is released after death into a common sphere and reincarnation is optional. They believe in the power of free will over destiny due to their very free-spirited nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== &#039;&#039;&#039;Technology and Science&#039;&#039;&#039; ==&lt;br /&gt;
Most Gelum are interested in the concept of progression and technological advancements. For those who participate in research, they are well regarded and tend to help advance the societal development for Gelum as a whole. Those who do participate are primarily tasked with the instability of Gelum physiology and finding technological and magical solutions to make up for such issues. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== &#039;&#039;&#039;Traditional Clothing and Fashion&#039;&#039;&#039; ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum mostly wear cottage core or nature esque outfits taking inspiration from all aspects of the natural world including plants, animals, space, landscapes, etc. Some adorn themselves with their natural environment as well with flowers and vines. Gelum clothes are varied as while Gelum are majority community-based, they choose to express their individuality in clothing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== &#039;&#039;&#039;Occupations&#039;&#039;&#039; ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum live simple lifestyles, picking up occupations that fit the niches needed by their village. Typically occupations include: farmer, researcher/scientist, hunter, technician, etc. Some are not employed but contribute in other ways and assist their family within their careers, everybody contributes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== &#039;&#039;&#039;Starships and Space Travel&#039;&#039;&#039; ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum don&#039;t typically travel off their planetary body not due to the lack of research in interplanetary travel, but a lack of interest or need to. Those who have traveled off the planet have to have some roundabout way to get off the planet, either being a researcher themselves, having connections, sneaking aboard a ship, etc. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== &#039;&#039;&#039;Cultural Quirks and Daily Life&#039;&#039;&#039; ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum are typically used to metalworking due to the abundance within the planet and the usage within most structures. They use a very post-modern, near futuristic architecture. Gelum tend to have a immense dedication to their career and enjoy their busy lives. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== &#039;&#039;&#039;Notable Locations&#039;&#039;&#039; ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
List important places tied to this species.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== &#039;&#039;&#039;Interactions With Other Species&#039;&#039;&#039; ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As Gelum typically don&#039;t travel off their planetary body much, most only have interacted with [[Ferrans]] and other Gelum on [[Singulon]]. Most are indifferent to the [[Ferrans]] due to the lack of interaction between the species, especially its lower class, and the carefree nature of Gelum causing a lack of interest in interaction.&lt;br /&gt;

For those who participate in research, they are well regarded and tend to help advance the societal development for Gelum as a whole. Those who do participate are primarily tasked with the instability of Gelum physiology and finding technological and magical solutions to make up for such issues. &lt;br /&gt;

== &#039;&#039;&#039;Traditional Clothing and Fashion&#039;&#039;&#039; ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum mostly wear cottage core or nature esque outfits taking inspiration from all aspects of the natural world including plants, animals, space, landscapes, etc. Some adorn themselves with their natural environment as well with flowers and vines. Gelum clothes are varied as while Gelum are majority community-based, they choose to express their individuality in clothing.&lt;br /&gt;

== &#039;&#039;&#039;Occupations&#039;&#039;&#039; ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum live simple lifestyles, picking up occupations that fit the niches needed by their village. Typically occupations include: farmer, researcher/scientist, hunter, technician, etc. Some are not employed but contribute in other ways and assist their family within their careers, everybody contributes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== &#039;&#039;&#039;Starships and Space Travel&#039;&#039;&#039; ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum don&#039;t typically travel off their planetary body not due to the lack of research in interplanetary travel, but a lack of interest or need to. Those who have traveled off the planet have to have some roundabout way to get off the planet, either being a researcher themselves, having connections, sneaking aboard a ship, etc. &lt;br /&gt;

Gelum are typically used to metalworking due to the abundance within the planet and the usage within most structures. They use a very post-modern, near futuristic architecture. Gelum tend to have a immense dedication to their career and enjoy their busy lives. &lt;br /&gt;

As Gelum typically don&#039;t travel off their planetary body much, most only have interacted with [[Ferrans]] and other Gelum on [[Singulon]]. Most are indifferent to the [[Ferrans]] due to the lack of interaction between the species, especially its lower class, and the carefree nature of Gelum causing a lack of interest in interaction.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Once comprised of more conventional beings, generations of intense arcane experimentation and prolonged exposure to unstable energies reshaped the Gelum into fluid, slime-based entities, their bodies no longer bound to fixed structures, although most retain humanoid shapes and floating bones and organs within. This provides the Gelum with extraordinary adaptability and a unique relationship with magic, but at the cost of physical stability. To survive, many Gelum rely on external frameworks, whether mechanical or arcane, to maintain cohesion in environments not attuned to their altered state. This can be something as simple as wearing arcane supports. Many are semi-transparent, but some are known to be opaque. Native to the inner reaches of &#039;&#039;&#039;[[Singulon]]&#039;&#039;&#039;, they are the architects behind one of the most audacious feats in known space: the creation and containment of an artificial singularity, which they harness as both a power source and a focus for advanced magical study. Among other species, the Gelum are often regarded with a mix of awe and unease. They embody both the potential and the danger of pushing beyond natural limits, living proof that mastery over reality can unmake one’s self just as easily as it can elevate it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== &#039;&#039;&#039;Core Worldview&#039;&#039;&#039; ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What is this species&#039; outlook on the world? What is their main mentality?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== &#039;&#039;&#039;Physiology and Design&#039;&#039;&#039; ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum have a very unique biology. They appear to have a somewhat normal organ structure, though some, like lungs, are vestigial. and they have extremely thick yet flexible skin. They can expand  at will and lose most of their rigid structure. They don&#039;t have traditional muscles, but have nearly invisible tendons that connect to small rigid organs in their “joints.” Gelum are composed of a gelatinous substance, dense enough to hold organs without a skeletal structure in certain atmospheres. Their artificial singularity has slowly been warping them to favor more high pressure conditions. Their joints are filled with a viscous fluid that allows them to bend at those specific points more easily.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== &#039;&#039;&#039;Magic&#039;&#039;&#039; ====&lt;br /&gt;
Their organs are very similarly composed to that of the common Aurelian, aside from a spiky organ attached to their heart called the Aursin. This organ allows them to accumulate magical energy from the surrounding area and their own bodies to expel as spells. This does not mean Gelum are naturally gifted at magic though and they have to work said organ in order for it to be usable. They have the same magic capabilities as other species and do not have any particular advantage with this innate ability provided other than a slightly easier time initially accessing their magic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== &#039;&#039;&#039;Social Structures and Community&#039;&#039;&#039; ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum are very dependent on each other, and rely on their community. Their government/economic structure, or lack thereof is fairly laissez-faire. Though this government structure has evolved into a pseudo-communist structure which has the resulting dependence that is present currently. They form small communities, attune to villages, and they tend to trade between said villages. In times of trouble or conflict councils are formed with representatives from each of the villagers involved to attempt to resolve things diplomatically as life is hard enough without conflicts to make things worse.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== &#039;&#039;&#039;Government&#039;&#039;&#039; ====&lt;br /&gt;
Within these communities a wide range of different government structures are used however in most them tends to be anywhere from 1-5 elected officials from the elders of academics of the community who act as representatives in inter-community councils and leaders for community meetings where decisions are made. While currency is used, in many communities trade is conducted more through a system of ongoing favors and partnerships with a general purpose of ensuring everyone in the community has what they need and is providing for others acting under the philosophy that it all roughly balanced out so no need to stress over exact currency transactions. In inter-community or inter-species transactions this is where currency tends to be used more often and Gelum are much more careful to make sure their goods and services are properly paid for. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If a member of a community is deemed to be a problem or unfit to be part of the community they are cast out and either must beg for another community to accept them or try to live in the wildnesses alone which is a dangerous prospect. There are some Gelum who have managed very successful lives as outcasts but due to their very community based culture most would find such a life to be torture.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== &#039;&#039;&#039;Religion and Spirituality&#039;&#039;&#039; ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelums are devoid of a common religion. Some are very spirtual though and believe in the power of souls and their linkage to magic as well as each other. They believe in the afterlife, and that the soul is released after death into a common sphere and reincarnation is optional. They believe in the power of free will over destiny due to their very free-spirited nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== &#039;&#039;&#039;Technology and Science&#039;&#039;&#039; ==&lt;br /&gt;

They embody both the potential and the danger of pushing beyond natural limits, living proof that mastery over reality can unmake one’s self just as easily as it can elevate it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Core Worldview ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What is this species&#039; outlook on the world? What is their main mentality?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Physiology and Design ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum have a very unique biology. They appear to have a somewhat normal organ structure, though some, like lungs, are vestigial. and they have extremely thick yet flexible skin. They can expand  at will and lose most of their rigid structure. They don&#039;t have traditional muscles, but have nearly invisible tendons that connect to small rigid organs in their “joints.” Gelum are composed of a gelatinous substance, dense enough to hold organs without a skeletal structure in certain atmospheres. Their organs are very similarly composed to that of the common Aurelian, aside from a spiky organ attached to their heart called the Aursin. This organ allows them to accumulate magical energy from the surrounding area and their own bodies to expel as spells. This does not mean Gelum are naturally gifted at magic though and they have to work said organ in order for it to be usable. They have the same magic capabilities as other species and do not have any particular advantage with this innate ability provided other than a slightly easier time initially accessing their magic. Their joints are filled with a viscous fluid that allows them to bend at those specific points more easily.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Social Structures and Community ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum are very dependent on each other, and rely on their community. Their government/economic structure, or lack thereof is fairly laissez-faire. Though this government structure has evolved into a pseudo-communist structure which has the resulting dependence that is present currently. They form small communities, attune to villages, and they tend to trade between said villages. In times of trouble or conflict councils are formed with representatives from each of the villagers involved to attempt to resolve things diplomatically as life is hard enough without conflicts to make things worse.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Within these communities a wide range of different government structures are used however in most them tends to be anywhere from 1-5 elected officials from the elders of academics of the community who act as representatives in inter-community councils and leaders for community meetings where decisions are made. While currency is used, in many communities trade is conducted more through a system of ongoing favors and partnerships with a general purpose of ensuring everyone in the community has what they need and is providing for others acting under the philosophy that it all roughly balanced out so no need to stress over exact currency transactions. In inter-community or inter-species transactions this is where currency tends to be used more often and Gelum are much more careful to make sure their goods and services are properly paid for. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If a member of a community is deemed to be a problem or unfit to be part of the community they are cast out and either must beg for another community to accept them or try to live in the wildnesses alone which is a dangerous prospect. There are some Gelum who have managed very successful lives as outcasts but due to their very community based culture most would find such a life to be torture.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Religion and Spirituality ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelums are devoid of a common religion. Some are very spirtual though and believe in the power of souls and their linkage to magic as well as each other. They believe in the afterlife, and that the soul is released after death into a common sphere and reincarnation is optional. They believe in the power of free will over destiny due to their very free-spirited nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Technology and Science ==&lt;br /&gt;
Most Gelum are not interested in technology or science so they are very underdeveloped in that way. Just because most aren&#039;t interested doesn&#039;t mean there aren&#039;t the select few who partake. For those who do, they are considered pioneers and tend to advance the societal development for Gelum as a whole. Those who do participate are primarily tasked with the instability of Gelum physiology and finding technological and magical solutions to make up for such issues.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Traditional Clothing and Fashion ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum mostly wear cottage core or nature esque outfits taking inspiration from all aspects of the natural world including plants, animals, space, landscapes, etc. Some adorn themselves with their natural environment as well with flowers and vines. Gelum clothes are varied as while Gelum are majority community-based, they choose to express their individuality in clothing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Occupations ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum live simple lifestyles, picking up occupations that fit the niches needed by their village. Typically occupations include: farmer, researcher/scientist, hunter, technician, etc. Some are not employed but contribute in other ways and assist their family within their careers, everybody contributes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Starships and Space Travel ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum don&#039;t typically travel off their planetary body due to the lack of research in interplanetary travel.

As Gelum typically don&#039;t travel off their planetary body much, most only have interacted with [[Ferrans]] and other Gelum on [[Singulon]]. Most are indifferent to the [[Ferrans]] due to the lack of interaction between the species, especially its lower class, and the carefree nature of Gelum causing a lack of interest in interaction.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Optional species quote or defining cultural phrase.&amp;quot; — Someone from this species&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once comprised of more conventional beings, generations of intense arcane experimentation and prolonged exposure to unstable energies reshaped the Gelum into fluid, slime-based entities, their bodies no longer bound to fixed structures, although most retain humanoid shapes and floating bones and organs within. This provides the Gelum with extraordinary adaptability and a unique relationship with magic, but at the cost of physical stability. To survive, many Gelum rely on external frameworks, whether mechanical or arcane, to maintain cohesion in environments not attuned to their altered state. This can be something as simple as wearing arcane supports. Many are semi-transparent, but some are known to be opaque. Native to the inner reaches of &#039;&#039;&#039;[[Singulon]]&#039;&#039;&#039;, they are the architects behind one of the most audacious feats in known space: the creation and containment of an artificial singularity, which they harness as both a power source and a focus for advanced magical study. Among other species, the Gelum are often regarded with a mix of awe and unease. They embody both the potential and the danger of pushing beyond natural limits, living proof that mastery over reality can unmake one’s self just as easily as it can elevate it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Core Worldview ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What is this species&#039; outlook on the world? What is their main mentality?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Physiology and Design ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum have a very unique biology. They appear to have a somewhat normal organ structure, though some, like lungs, are vestigial. and they have extremely thick yet flexible skin. They can expand  at will and lose most of their rigid structure. They don&#039;t have traditional muscles, but have nearly invisible tendons that connect to small rigid organs in their “joints.” Gelum are composed of a gelatinous substance, dense enough to hold organs without a skeletal structure in certain atmospheres. Their organs are very similarly composed to that of the common Aurelian, aside from a spiky organ attached to their heart called the Aursin. This organ allows them to accumulate magical energy from the surrounding area and their own bodies to expel as spells. This does not mean Gelum are naturally gifted at magic though and they have to work said organ in order for it to be usable. They have the same magic capabilities as other species and do not have any particular advantage with this innate ability provided other than a slightly easier time initially accessing their magic. Their joints are filled with a viscous fluid that allows them to bend at those specific points more easily.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Social Structures and Community ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum are very dependent on each other, and rely on their community. Their government/economic structure, or lack thereof is fairly laissez-faire. Though this government structure has evolved into a pseudo-communist structure which has the resulting dependence that is present currently. They form small communities, attune to villages, and they tend to trade between said villages. In times of trouble or conflict councils are formed with representatives from each of the villagers involved to attempt to resolve things diplomatically as life is hard enough without conflicts to make things worse.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Within these communities a wide range of different government structures are used however in most them tends to be anywhere from 1-5 elected officials from the elders of academics of the community who act as representatives in inter-community councils and leaders for community meetings where decisions are made. While currency is used, in many communities trade is conducted more through a system of ongoing favors and partnerships with a general purpose of ensuring everyone in the community has what they need and is providing for others acting under the philosophy that it all roughly balanced out so no need to stress over exact currency transactions. In inter-community or inter-species transactions this is where currency tends to be used more often and Gelum are much more careful to make sure their goods and services are properly paid for. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If a member of a community is deemed to be a problem or unfit to be part of the community they are cast out and either must beg for another community to accept them or try to live in the wildnesses alone which is a dangerous prospect. There are some Gelum who have managed very successful lives as outcasts but due to their very community based culture most would find such a life to be torture.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Religion and Spirituality ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelums are devoid of a common religion. Some are very spirtual though and believe in the power of souls and their linkage to magic as well as each other. They believe in the afterlife, and that the soul is released after death into a common sphere and reincarnation is optional. They believe in the power of free will over destiny due to their very free-spirited nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Technology and Science ==&lt;br /&gt;
Most Gelum are not interested in technology or science so they are very underdeveloped in that way. Just because most aren&#039;t interested doesn&#039;t mean there aren&#039;t the select few who partake. For those who do, they are considered pioneers and tend to advance the societal development for Gelum as a whole. Those who do participate are primarily tasked with the instability of Gelum physiology and finding technological and magical solutions to make up for such issues.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Traditional Clothing and Fashion ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum mostly wear cottage core or nature esque outfits taking inspiration from all aspects of the natural world including plants, animals, space, landscapes, etc. Some adorn themselves with their natural environment as well with flowers and vines. Gelum clothes are varied as while Gelum are majority community-based, they choose to express their individuality in clothing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Occupations ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum live simple lifestyles, picking up occupations that fit the niches needed by their village. Typically occupations include: farmer, researcher/scientist, hunter, technician, etc. Some are not employed but contribute in other ways and assist their family within their careers, everybody contributes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Starships and Space Travel ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum don&#039;t typically travel off their planetary body due to the lack of research in interplanetary travel. Those who have traveled off the planet have to have some roundabout way to get off the planet, either being a researcher themselves, having connections, sneaking aboard a ship, etc. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Once comprised of more conventional beings, generations of intense arcane experimentation and prolonged exposure to unstable energies reshaped the Gelum into fluid, slime-based entities, their bodies no longer bound to fixed structures, although most retain humanoid shapes and floating bones and organs within. This provides the Gelum with extraordinary adaptability and a unique relationship with magic, but at the cost of physical stability. To survive, many Gelum rely on external frameworks, whether mechanical or arcane, to maintain cohesion in environments not attuned to their altered state. This can be something as simple as wearing arcane supports. Many are semi-transparent, but some are known to be opaque. Native to the inner reaches of &#039;&#039;&#039;[[Singulon]]&#039;&#039;&#039;, they are the architects behind one of the most audacious feats in known space: the creation and containment of an artificial singularity, which they harness as both a power source and a focus for advanced magical study. Among other species, the Gelum are often regarded with a mix of awe and unease. They embody both the potential and the danger of pushing beyond natural limits, living proof that mastery over reality can unmake one’s self just as easily as it can elevate it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Core Worldview ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What is this species&#039; outlook on the world? What is their main mentality?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Physiology and Design ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum have a very unique biology. They appear to have a somewhat normal organ structure, though some, like lungs, are vestigial. and they have extremely thick yet flexible skin. They can expand  at will and lose most of their rigid structure. They don&#039;t have traditional muscles, but have nearly invisible tendons that connect to small rigid organs in their “joints.” Gelum are composed of a gelatinous substance, dense enough to hold organs without a skeletal structure in certain atmospheres. Their organs are very similarly composed to that of the common Aurelian, aside from a spiky organ attached to their heart called the Aursin. This organ allows them to accumulate magical energy from the surrounding area and their own bodies to expel as spells. This does not mean Gelum are naturally gifted at magic though and they have to work said organ in order for it to be usable. They have the same magic capabilities as other species and do not have any particular advantage with this innate ability provided other than a slightly easier time initially accessing their magic. Their joints are filled with a viscous fluid that allows them to bend at those specific points more easily.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Social Structures and Community ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gelum are very dependent on each other, and rely on their community. Their government/economic structure, or lack thereof is fairly laissez-faire. Though this government structure has evolved into a pseudo-communist structure which has the resulting dependence that is present currently. They form small communities, attune to villages, and they tend to trade between said villages. In times of trouble or conflict councils are formed with representatives from each of the villagers involved to attempt to resolve things diplomatically as life is hard enough without conflicts to make things worse.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Within these communities a wide range of different government structures are used however in most them tends to be anywhere from 1-5 elected officials from the elders of academics of the community who act as representatives in inter-community councils and leaders for community meetings where decisions are made. While currency is used, in many communities trade is conducted more through a system of ongoing favors and partnerships with a general purpose of ensuring everyone in the community has what they need and is providing for others acting under the philosophy that it all roughly balanced out so no need to stress over exact currency transactions. In inter-community or inter-species transactions this is where currency tends to be used more often and Gelum are much more careful to make sure their goods and services are properly paid for. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If a member of a community is deemed to be a problem or unfit to be part of the community they are cast out and either must beg for another community to accept them or try to live in the wildnesses alone which is a dangerous prospect. There are some Gelum who have managed very successful lives as outcasts but due to their very community based culture most would find such a life to be torture.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Religion and Spirituality ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What do they believe in religiously, if at all? Are there gods? Do they worship the Nullstar? Fear it?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Technology and Science ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here you guys can expand. If there&#039;s a specialty relating to one field or another, include it. Are they especially good at invention? Chemistry? Biology? You can also add a section for literature and artisinal aspects if you would like.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Traditional Clothing and Fashion ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Most Gelum moslty wear cottagecore or natureesque outfits taking inspiration from all aspects of the natural world including plants, animals, space, landscapes, etc.. Some adorn themselves with their natural environment as well with flowers and vines. Gelum clothes are varied as while Gelum are majority community-based, they choose to express their individuality in clothing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Occupations ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The point of this section is to list some fields that this species could specialize in to give people more ideas for their character.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Starships and Space Travel ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What does travel look like for this species? What do ships native to their planet look like? Do they travel often? Do they have bustling ports or are they more closed off?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Cultural Quirks and Daily Life ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A big trivia section, basically. I&#039;d encourage incorporating animal mannerisms and fun little traits that don&#039;t fit anywhere else.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Notable Locations ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
List important places tied to this species.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Interactions With Other Species ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Especially the other species that they share the planet with. You may need to work with the other teams for this. But I&#039;d like to see this section just to foster more player interactions from the get-go. It&#039;s easy plot hooks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Inspiration Images ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Add visual references here!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Concept Art ==&lt;br /&gt;

Add actual concept art here, stuff we made!&lt;br /&gt;
